It is already defined in the arch/blackfin/include dir.


Hi Daniel,

This should never happen due to the blackfin headers.
Actually the COMPILE_TEST option made these two happen.

Should I push a v4 to keep COMPILE_TEST ?

The easier way would be:
depends on !BLACKFIN

I will take care of cleaning up this macro name collision when moving the timer driver in drivers/clocksource (that's really in the future ...).

The idea is to have all the drivers with the COMPILE_TEST option set, so we can spot more issues at compile time earlier. This change reveals, of course, some errors we were not facing before and at least it has the benefit to enlighten some arch-shadowed drivers.
